About This Person

From All Movie Guide: One of France's most respected directors, Claude Sautet was without equal in his ability to chronicle the banal complexities of French bourgeois life. In such works as Les Choses de la Vie (1969), Vincent, Paul, François, et les Autres (1974), and Un Coeur en Hiver (1992), Sautet explored the personal relationships and emotional frailties of everyday men and women with warmth and assurance, providing audiences with rare insight into the lives and loves of the French middle classes.
